Elder til Pokalen tirsdag 4. august

4. august er det nok ferie, vi åpner dørene igjen med en kjempekonsert, fra andre siden av atlanteren kommer Elder og Mos Generator på besøk. Er dette nytt for deg kan du finne begge banda hos din nærmeste streamingtjeneste, de er verdt å sjekke ut. Velkommen til en kick-start på høsten 2015!

Elder is the definition of a work in progress, as the group continues to meld the familiar sounds of Sleep‘s colossal riffage with their ever-evolving vision of soaring melodies and sonic soundscapes. Listeners will find themselves locked into the trio’s lengthy epics, which toe the line between the chasms of classic stoner metal and mindblowing psychedelia.

Since the release of 2010′s Dead Roots Stirring, their second full-length record for MeteorCity Records, Elder has continued to push their sound in more dynamic and inspiring directions, while still holding true to their original methodology: all heavy, no filler.

Lore is the third full-length album by Elder and a watershed moment in the band’s history.
Joining the interplay of heaviness and melody, which has become the hallmark Elder sound, are a host of new meanderings through uncharted cosmic territory; krautrock, prog as well as classic heavy rock and doom can all be heard unfolding throughout the record’s five songs.

The album will be released on February 27th as a double LP+CD (with a customizable, die-cut cover, no less!), digitally and as a digipack CD version through Stickman Records

Support:

Mos Generator formed during the winter of 2000 in Port Orchard, Washington from the ashes of a ten year off & on collaboration between it’s three members, all of which are long time veterans of road & studio. The need to strip down to the basics of hard rock was apparent from the start and continues to be the foundation for all the bands recent material. Mos Generator have released 5 studio albums, a retrospective album, and a live album on such labels as Roadburn, Small Stone, Ripple, Nasoni, and Lay Bare. Touring has been just as important to the profile of the band as making records has.

Over the years Mos Generator has shared the stage with many great heavy rock bands and in March of 2013 they did a 26 date European tour with Saint Vitus, opening up a whole new fan base to the Mos Generator sound. On stage the band defines the word “chemistry”. Revolving their sound around swagger and groove while improvising just enough to keep the songs feeling fresh from night to night…sometimes with interesting results.
